Weekend in Pictures

We had a very busy weekend!

Saturday Vince and Gabe came by for dinner.....

Rigatoni, three bean salad and caesar salad with hot bread from the oven...

MMMmmmm
(it was a joint effort)

Lots of kid time....

Sunday Morning we were up and at 'em early for the Alameda Antique Fair!

Sooooo many vendors...

Tired...But Ready to Shop!

There is something for everyone here....
Be on the lookout for this little item on Pinterest..... It's sure to be the next hot thing to "makeover".  They were EVERYWHERE.  Cute vintage telephone table with cubby...I just need to find the perfect corner in my house and I'll be bringing one home soon..

I love, love, love these shabby chic painted mantles....  I want one over my bed...and in my entryway....and...... anywhere really...I want all of them!

We had to take a break and enjoy some goodness from all the food trucks that line the edges of the fair.
These ladies opted for crepes..


While I opted for the Indian Wrap.  Chicken Tikka Masala in a Fresh Naan wrap.  So. Good.
(This photograph does not do it justice)

There were so many treasures...
I loved this jewelry 
it's scrabble tile turned into pendants.
Love. That.
(I immediately thought of Tegan)

I can not explain how hard it was to walk away from this piece of art.
I NEED this for my kitchen!

I think I may have a new little piggy obsession....

A quick pic to show Mr. Kirbyface something he might like to add to the ManCave..

I love to people watch at the fair.

There's just too much to look at!
As we were leaving the line went on F O R E V E R....
I'm so glad we got up early.
It's nice to have a veteran of the fair to show us the tricks!
Thanks Shan!

We were so inspired when we got home...we poured over our Iphones, and Ipads and computers on Pinterest...looking for things to create with future purchases...
But then we got hungry..
and started looking at pictures of pinned food...and not so much distressed furniture....

And the frying began...

Ladies and Gentleman...

Deep. Fried. Avocados.
Hello Fantastic.

And...
Deep Fried PICKLES.
What?!?!
Oh yes I did.
And they were AMAZING!

While the ladies were shopping, Mr. Kirbyface took the kids to the park to let out some energy.


In addition to being child wrangler...he also, cleaned and vacuumed the whole house, including loading and unloading the dishwasher AND made THE BED.

Super Dad!

Monday was our laaaaazy day......

Dad got up early  and let me sleep in...

Awww....


Ponytail a la Daddy


Quality sibling time....

Getting fancy...

Bruschetta Apps

Teriyaki Grilled Chicken by our very own grill Master.

And a little cuddle time before bed.
(even if it's forced...)

Happy Labor Day!!!
